CVE-2013-0857
CVSS v2.0
9.3
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libav versions prior to 1.1
Description
The issue concerns multiple vulnerabilities in the libav package of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system, which can be exploited remotely to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. Specifically, the decode frame ilbm function in libavcodec/iff.c is affected by a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to have an impact via a crafted height value in IFF PBM/ILBM bitmap data.
Recommendations
For libav versions prior to 1.1, update to version 1.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the decode frame ilbm function in libavcodec/iff.c to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the
height value in IFF PBM/ILBM bitmap data until the issue is resolved.Exploit
